It’s not surprising to me really given that gamers have thrown fits over past games using types instead of ‘female’ or ‘male’ but I guess I just can’t get over how fucking stupid it is to care so much that you download a mod that reverts the text in a character creation menu. The slightest change in language in order to be more welcoming to other players is treated as the downfall of society by these people.
(For context, this is on nexusmods)
It’s obviously horseshit that this is even a thing, but 2.9k endorsements on a game that just came out with basically no mods outside of reshade presets and .ini tweaks means only the most deranged fucking losers are even looking at this right now, and it wouldn’t surprise me if there are organized campaigns of incel reactionaries who organize to always endorse shit like this on nexusmods.
Nexusmods has its issues, but they’re pretty decent about removing anti-lgbtq content historically and don’t really play around with the dumbest of bad-intent abstractions like “it’s actually just restoring the game to its original intention.” It wouldn’t surprise me to see this “mod” get nuked fairly soon and then a 2 day media circus led by the rat lord himself about censorship in media or some bullshit.
In short, I love my trans comrades
We’ve already been through that news cycle. Nexusmods caved and unbanned the mod.
That’s what fucking happens, these losers have nothing better to do than watch their right wing streamers all day, something gets mentioned by a few that becomes a target of either hate or endorsement and they pile on it.
While us commies are studying theory or reading about the new unfolding horrors in the world the chuds are looking for ways to fight ‘woke’ and they think endorsing a mod like this is part of their struggle against removed(I guess the word describing the state of being removedd is banned? Ffs I don’t know how to substitute it, I’m trying to say what Nazis say society has become, a lesser form than it was, starting with ‘degen’)
I probably have more pity than disdain for these sorts of people, it must be the saddest existence, lonely and detached from reality.
I can’t wait for Grommz to go on blood pressure meds when it gets taken down
same guy who almost lost the rights to the name of his game, bc someone created a porn game with the same name and released it on steam
